As Kevin Patra of NFL.com wrote, the bus driver who drove the Tennessee Titans to their game versus the Minnesota Vikings last weekend also drove the Houston Astros to their playoff series against the Minnesota Twins.
The Titans are in the middle of a coronavirus outbreak that caused the NFL to postpone Sunday's game between Tennessee and the Pittsburgh Steelers. Patra shared the following Major League Baseball statement on the matter:
"We are aware of the situation and are comfortable that all of our health and safety protocols have been followed."
Following back-to-back victories over Minnesota, Houston will face either the Oakland Athletics or Chicago White Sox. The remaining playoff rounds are occurring inside bubble sites.
